# Track Changes

Review [CriticMarkup](http://criticmarkup.com/) suggestions in an Obsidian side panel. Accept, reject, or reply — straight back into the markdown, no sidecar state.

Intended for AI-assisted review: the agent leaves `{++…++}`, `{--…--}`, `{~~old~>new~~}`, `{>>comment<<}`, `{==highlight==}` in your note; you triage them here. A starting-point reviewer prompt lives at [`docs/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/philphilphil/obsidian-track-changes/blob/main/docs/SKILL.md). For *authoring* CriticMarkup yourself, see [Fevol/obsidian-criticmarkup](https://github.com/Fevol/obsidian-criticmarkup).

## Features

- All five CriticMarkup forms with inline styling and a side-panel card per mark
- Threaded comments (adjacent `{>>…<<}` blocks), multi-author colors
- Accept / reject per mark, reply inline, delete per message or thread
- **Finalize for publish** — resolves all remaining markup in one pass
- Reading mode: accepted preview or raw side-by-side
- Code blocks left alone

## Interaction

- **Click a mark** in Live Preview to edit in place — the raw markup is exposed, the color stays.
- **⌘/Ctrl-click a mark** (or set *Click highlighted text to open in panel*) opens the side panel instead.
- **Click a panel card** to jump the editor to its chip.
- **Source Mode** shows raw markup verbatim.

## Commands

- *Open review panel*
- *Finalize for publish* — accept additions, drop deletions and comments, etc.
